How to print an XML file to the screen in PHP?
This is not working:
$curl = curl_init(); curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/topstories'); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); $result = curl_exec ($curl); curl_close ($curl); $xml = simplexml_load_string($result); echo $xml; Is there a simple solution? Maybe without SimpleXML?

The contents from a URL can be fetched through the file_get_contents() and it can be echoed. or read using the readfile function. readfile('http://example.com/'); header('Content-type: text/xml'); //The correct MIME type has to be set before displaying the output. echo $xml->asXML(); or $xml->asXML('filename.
$dom2 = new DOMDocument; $dom2->load('existingFile. xml'); $dom2->documentElement->appendChild($dom2->importNode($fragment, true)); This would append the fragment as the last child of the root node.
php header("Content-type: text/xml"); $yourFile = "xmlfile. xml"; $file = file_get_contents($yourFile); echo $file; If you insist on simple xml you can write like this.
Start with $videos = simplexml_load_file('videos. xml'); You can modify video object as described in SimpleXMLElement documentation, and then write it back to XML file using file_put_contents('videos. xml', $videos->asXML()); Don't worry, SimpleXMLElement is in each PHP by default.
You can use HTTP URLs as if they were local files, thanks to PHP's wrappers
You can get the contents from an URL via file_get_contents() and then echo it, or even read it directly using readfile()
$file = file_get_contents('http://example.com/rss'); echo $file; or
readfile('http://example.com/rss'); Don't forget to set the correct MIME type before outputing anything, though.
